Audley Harrison......Olympic Gold Medalist>Terrible Pro
Shannon Briggs... Showed promise but apart from one lucky win extremely disappointing
Zab Judah. . . .Apart from the Spinks fight has found a way to lose every possible competative match despite being naturally gifted

Panchito Bojado, one of the best raw talents the game has seen in a long time.
Another guy you probably never heard of but is for real is Darling Jiminez. I can totally see him KO'ing Yuriorkis Gamboa and then staying away from boxing for a year or two.

I can't rate underachievers like Mike Tyson, Michael Nunn, Hector Camacho, Rid**** Bowe, etc....as the biggest because they still reached the top.
Tyson and Camacho are both probables (Tyson a lock) for the HOF, and Tyson is regarded by most to be a top 15, maybe top 10 HW all-time. Bowe still became the HW champ of the world.
The other guys I mentioned like Ayala, Williams, Ibeabuchi, never made it past the contender/prospect level before squandering their talent.
